Not to be afraid if you look on that direction, It is the goodness that your physical eyes don’t see, but it will filled your spirit of happiness.

Thank you for asking. Well, I still have my feelings a little mixed, you know, like, I want to walk on that trail toward the light and enjoy the freedom of it, but then, I feel like I want to come back and accept my reality; a powerful force push me back in again. The good thing is: I continue fighting my own feelings and I sense, I’m winning the battle. So I feel now that l I’m more steady, coming toward the light this days because that’s what I want (My Freedom To Live)

Acknowledgements

My name is Angel, but they also know me as The Journey Man This is a title that I’m giving to this book and to put together my story. I note here for the people up there to know how importat it is for me (The Author of this book) to acknowledge and give credit to a number of good people who demonstrated their best effort in helping me with this literary work. First place goes to the beautiful Livia Barcenas Ortiz (Livia BO) a created name to protect her personal privacy. Livia is a School Teacher from Ensenada Baja California and presently works as such with children of ages 8 to 9. To my best fortune, I found Livia in Facebook last December. After our first month of chatting in the internet, I brought her to my Residence in Chicago. We communicated very well on my still writing story (The Journey Man). I acknowledged so many of her talents about computer and writing skills that I proposed to her assisting me in my project and she said yes. After she left Chicago for Mexico, I took a long drive trip from Illinois to San Diego California (8 days on the road) to meet Livia and once here, we started working together till we finaly finished my well intended written story (The book) Looking and video-taping the whole work, now I tell my dearest and efficient associate: Livia, I commend you, I thank you a million for your great job done; thank you The light is around" Take it from me, you deserve my best appreciation for your great service

I also focus my special attention to my daughter Hilda Tiedemann who lives in the State of Virginia (in the community of Midlothian). I also remember that it was running the end of the year 2012 when I wrote my first note that iniciate the story of Angel, The Journey Man, the continuation of my first book, A Trip To Remember, because of this I say: Hilda, Thank you, we were together and we iniciate my written story with your help when I was in your house sharing the best moments with you and Josh my Grandson. Thank you my daughter ~ A special Mention goes to my other son Alex and the new baby grand son, Victor and her mom, Eva Morales who brought a precious gift to the family… Also thank my heavently wife’s brother Freddie in New Jersey for his behemently support and being the first who red the book A trip to remember my dedicated story to his sister Iris my loving wife in heaven and her Mom, Delia Colon for bringing Iris to this world and supporting me in my effort to take care of her for the 40 beautiful years we lived in happy marriage together. Most of all, I send my love to Iris in heaven and I say here: Iris, you continue to be my inspiration, I finished our second book (We did it together on the road because you were with me all the time) I love you mi amor

One person I will aknowledge in my book will be my nephew, Arnaldo Dejesus from Chicago who in his best intended will contributed with important graphics (photos) for my book. Thank you Naldo, now you are part of this story too.

Preface

I’m Angel R. Morales, the writer, the husband in the story beyond A Trip To Remember but now I’m The Journey Man, telling you about my last three years which its not bad, but enough to carry a lot of sad feelings in my heart, a fair reason to feel that way. My life is this and today, I’m ready to go into my wild journey again. It’s difficult for me to stay in one place and I know that not too many can understand this; only me because I know what it is; so your life, my life will go with the flow. I see myself these days as one soul in constant motion day and night, non-stop. The thing is: I feel uncomfortable if I change the pattern of my current life". But when I found myself without Iris’s love, and knowing that I have to keep my mision on course, then I feel my life has to go on. And this is my story today…

Introduction

I remember that day during the Month of November 2012 in Chicago, the weather was very cold and dark same as it was my spirit because of the loss of my wife Iris a year before; my God! Bringing back those memories, it’s like living those momentous again I needed to get out of the city as fast as I could, I felt like I was pushed by some mysterious being deep inside my soul, but it was my living reality of those days (I was alone without her, She wasn’t there with me no more. Well, I said to myself, I have to obey and go on with my feelings, to leave the area and not looking back. Lots of other things happened like not being able to sleep for two days before leaving the city. But I will briefly relate here in my writing a message that I received in Facebook from a friend called Milly She acted like wanting to help me putting together my emotions of that week. I responded to Milly, thanking her for the effort, but I had my decision made and I left for the road toward the Southern Country. I knew in my heart that I was ridding down south and if I should’ve stopped somewhere, it would it had to be warm. But then, all I had in my mind was just to ride and ride, a ride to nowhere. (That was the beginning of three years mission on the road for Angel, The Journey Man (Announcing my dedicated story that I wrote to Iris my wife) I was happy then, I am happy now and I will pursue that feeling until my life expire…

Walking at night, searching through the light where she’s been placed, but the energy of her spirit goes along in my way.
